I'm on the fence with this one because I like the color (by the way I have this in 06 Blushing Petal), but I do not like the ruddiness of it. When I'm looking for my holy grail blush I try to find one that provides a nice dewy look without caking and sinking into pores. The thing is, my pores are practically invisible so for this blush to sink into them is just absurd. This is nothing like my Estee Lauder or L'oreal blush, which looks smooth and natural. I cannot stand a cakey or ruddy look, and this is exactly what this blush gives me. Another thing I do not like about this blush is that it streaks very easily, and it's not just my application b/c I've been applying blush for years with the right types of brushes. I guess this product was a fail for me, unfortunately because it was a gorgeous color and was oh so cheap especially since I found it in the reduced/discontinued basket at Wal-Greens. No repurchase unless I find some way to tone down the ruddiness and smooth the blush out. I do use moisturizer so I know that couldn't be it. I might try using a primer under my powder or trying this over liquid foundation instead of powder, which creates too matte of a look.

I thought this blush wouldn't work out because it was really cheap and I don't really see much of this line anywhere but Walmart. So I bought this and was using it and it really flattered my fair skin tone. Recently I bought the blush Dandelion by Benefit and I keep going back to my blushing glow blush by Jane! The only thing is sometimes if you're feeling a little more matte this blush is pretty glittery.

Oh my gosh...I cannot express how much I LOVE this blush. I'm not a big blush person to begin with, I have very rosy cheeks naturally and it's one of the main reasons I wear foundation to begin with...but wearing foundation all of the time really makes me look bland and this gives me the PERFECT amount of color. I'm very tan, about an NC30-NC35 and I didn't know if this would show up on me...but it's SUPER pigmented. I really didn't expect it to be so smooth. And I was surprised at first at how pigmented it actually is, but once you blend it out it is the softest prettiest color. It almost made me look like a new person, haha! I only bought this for use on my birthday...but I love it so much it has become a part of my daily make up routine!

I bought this recently due to the good reviews for Jane products I have been seeing. I really Love this! I have a medium neutral skin tone, and this gives me a really nice, natural glow. I had been using Orgasm blush forever and wanted something a little different. I like this better. Orgasm is alot pinker on me, this gives me a natural warm, glowy look. This isn't sparkly or shimmery on me at all...Only thing I don't like is it's not densely packed so it can be kind of messy, but for the price and the color, I love this and will keep using.

Purchase info: 3.99 @ Rite-aid
Intended uses: natural blusher with a hint of shine. contouring if possible.
Pro's: I bought this because it was recommended as a dupe for NARS Orgasm and because it was recommended as flattering for all skintones. Personally I think this is a great blush and I have fair to light skin tone for most of the year. I get a bit tan during the summer but usually living in the Northeast I think that this is a good color. I can't comment a lot on the texture and quality since I don't own a lot of blushers.
Con's: isn't the most blendable or velvetty to the touch. Could be a bit drying for some.

I am really loving this Blush in Glow. It really warms my face up. It lasts all day and is super cheap, I got BOGO on two of them. The other one was Wine, which I didnt really care for. But Glow I am loving it kind of reminds me of Macs Blush in Margin, similar kind of Glow. But anyhow I like and def would repurchase.

Blushing Glow- I usually wear this shade on my NC 30 cheeks in the summer to achieve a dewy (not to shimmery) sun kissed glow. I like all of the shades in the Blushing Cheeks line. They all have a unique (in a good way) color, nice pigmentation, smooth texture, and long lasting staying power. I also love the fact that they can be depotted and place into a 36 mm palette, for those of us who are slightly OCD about organization and neat appearance. The only con is that Jane is going out of business and re discontinuing all of their wonderful products. So, get them while you still can. They’ll be gone before you know it.

The price is right, but I cannot get it to show up on my tan skin (think tan East Indian). It's okay as a highlighter but not the best. Got this for around 3 dollars at Duane Reade.

This is a really pretty blush for more dramatic looks, because it is really pigmented. I tend to wear this at night, or on special occasions and even then I apply lightly since it is so intense. Gorgeous color.

So, I was at Walgreens looking for a new blush, ive had Cliniqe and others, but i went through them WAY to quickly! Then i saw Jane. I liked the color and case (i tend to drop thing so it needs to be strong). Well anyway, i tried it and LOVE it. Its very pigmented and goes on beautifully. It gives my skin just the right pink/red without making me look like a clown. Not to mention the price is perfect for me. Im cheap but love a good product and this is sooo for me! LOVE!

My friend is new to makeup and is always going through my stash trying different looks so she can decide what she wants to buy. She tried my NARS blush in orgasm and loved it (as many people do) but she is a drugstore makeup shopper only, and refused to spend money on a blush that is $25.00. So she went out and bought Jane's blushing glow for 5 dollars.
She then showed up at my apartment saying "do you like my blush?" I was shocked because I thought that she had bought a nars (which is very out of character for her) But then she showed me this little gem!
We tested it and there is very little difference between my 25 dollar NARS and this 3 dollar Jane blush. (the color is slightly less pigmented-and alittle more bronzy than orgasm) but it is definily similar to orgasm and I recommend it to everyone! I have since gone and bought one for myself and I love it!

I am a huge fan of Jane blushes but this one just doesn't seem to measure up to my go-to shade, Babydoll. The color is somewhat drab on me and there is a little too much shimmer. I think the packaging showcases the color to look pinker than the way it actually applies which is warmer. On a good note, it's oil- free, inexpensive and provides a touch of color for days when it's not imperative that I look my best.

Pictured here are all eight of the Jane Blushing Cheeks blushes and all four of the Jane Be Pure Mineral Gel Eyeliners (please see my reviews for those if interested - they are the BEST!). All of these blushes and liners can be found at most Walgreens and Rite Aids for $3-4 each (but, as always, you can wait for a BOGO sale).


I'm rather ambivalent about this blush... it could be just that my skin is slightly more cool-toned (NW10-15ish), but it looked downright orange on my skin. All the shades go on smoothly and I have found them to be very blendable and buildable (though I wouldn't advise you to pile on too much of some of the warmer tones, or you might end up looking like an Oompa-Loompa unless you have very dark skin). My two favorites are 02 Blushing Blossom and 05 Blushing Wine, because they both show up as softly pretty, sophisticated colors on me. You may have noticed that both are matte. I have nothing against the shimmer in the others, including Blushing Glow; it's not over the top at all, and in fact, looks like a pretty natural glow on the cheeks. I guess I just feel that if you want shimmer, you might as well go all out and get the NARS blushes, because NARS does shimmer best.


On that note, I went through all of these, hopefully swatching for ages, waiting to find a match or two - but, bizarrely enough, none of the Jane blushes are dupes at all of any of the NARS blushes I currently own (Penny Lane, Deep Throat, Orgasm, Sin, Mata Hari, and Dolce Vita). A few of them looked at first glance like they could be close in tone to Penny Lane, Orgasm, and/or Deep Throat, but upon further inspection they really weren't even similar enough to bother with comparison pictures at all. (And, while I don't own the entire NARS blush collection, I do have a fairly good memory for what the ones I don't own look like, and I can't think of any really promising dupes with those, either.) It's not that the Jane blushes are bad or unimpressive; they're just relatively unique in color.

I finally understood the rule about that makeup is less intense on you than it is in the package.

This blush looked too bright and orangey for my fair skin, but I put it on, and it was the perfect peach for my skin tone, because I also found out that I have warm coloring, and pink blush just makes me look sick, this blush gave me the healthy glow I needed, without looking overdone.

I loved it and would definitly buy it again.

This is a glittery peach shade; it's less pink than NARS Orgasm. The blush itself is not good quality: coarse and not packed into the pan very well. I also find the large glitter particles to be very garish. I would not repurchase this.

I just got this and when it arrived, I was slightly shocked at how glittery it is... but it went on well and the glitter wasn't obvious to my friends. Thumbs up for that. I love the glow it gave me, like a nice tan in the sun. :)

One thing though, the powder is not very tightly packed and it gets picked up by the brush very easily. The first time I used this, I overapplied and have to tone it down with loose powder. So I must be very lighthanded with my blush brush when using this.

[Edited - I don't like the look at the end of the day, it looks a little muddy with glitters. Oh well, taken one more lippie off and looks like I'm putting it up for swap]

This is such a great cheap blush. It is pigmented, but not to the point where you have to blend for five minutes just to look natural. I can't say whether or not this is a good Orgasm dupe since I have never tried Orgasm, but I do know it is a glowy pink that makes me look like I just had a romp with the stable boy. For $3, that 'aint bad.

this is my HG blush! it's an exact knockoff of nars' orgasm (well, to me at least). i look like a have a year round healthy glow, much needed on my pale NC20 skin. i especially love checking riteaid and walgreen adds for the BOGO deals. it comes out to be about $1.75/blush. can't go wrong!

After reading reviews, I decided to look for this blush. I'm glad I did! It is very similar to my Chanel Irreelle Blush in Secret, but dare I say, a bit better! The packaging isn't as nice, but for 3 bucks you can't complain. It is a nice shimmery peach, but may have a bit too much shimmer for some. It's hard to believe that Jane products are so similar to high end.
